Admittedly they did not tell, by themselves, the rate at which you were taveling, but with a clock hung alongside them you could make A guess good enough for olden days, when speed limits and police traps were unknown. Evelyn, in his diary, writes in 1607: "I went to see Colonel Blount, who showed me the application of the way. wiser to a coach, exactly measuring the miles and showing them by an Index as we went on. It had three circles, one pointing to the number of rods, another to the miles, by 10 to 1,000, with all the subdivisions of quarters; very pretty and useful." What would Evelyn have said if he could have foreseen the pace the modern speedometer has to register, when holiday makers race home and tell the magistrate, a few days later, they were doing 15 miles an Edition, London Daily Mall, Small Boy Definitely Eliminated From Game Several little girls were "playing house" on a side porch when. Albert, three years old, emerged from his home on the opposite side of the street starch of excitement.

Ele was at once greeted with enthusiastic shouts, "Come on over, Albert! We're having a lot of tun." After looking up and down the street for approaching motor cars, he stalked slowly across, but his face bore a look of evident disgust when he perceived the nature of the entertainment offered him. A small table had been set with doll dishes and he was told he was to be somebody's "little boy" in the domestic scene about to be enacted. For a time he stood about, silent and making no effort to join in the proceedings. Then be deliberately walked to the little table and gave It a vicious shove, upsetting It and scattering the little dishes all over the porch. In the horrified silence that followed this, crime, he nounced solemnly: "I'm a bad boy and I've gotta go home." -Kansas City Star, Made Short Coat Popalar Few articles of dress were more popular at one time than the short coat known as the Spencer, the origin of which is extremely curious.

During the reign of George III, Earl Spencer, who was rather particular how he dressed, once remarked In a company that no fashion was so ridiculous but would be worn if introduced by a person of sufficient Importance. This was objected to, whereupon the earl offered to bet that if he cut off the skirts of his coat and walked out with merely the body and sleeves some one would follow sult. The bet was taken, the coat. prepared and worn by the earl in London. Before a week was over a well-known tailor, who was always on the lookout for something new, copied it, and so the Spencer came into being, Perspiration Thrown Off The public health service says that according to observations made by scientists the average quantity of sweat in 24 hours may amount to two or three pints in a person clothed and at an average temperature of 32 degrees centigrade.
